Flows into The gas bag begins to unfold and the car door jacket is released such that the head protection gas bag 14 emerges from the jacket (see FIGS. 2 and 3). An easily releasable connection, such as a clip fastener, can be provided to attach the jacket to an automobile door. FIG. 2 shows the head protection gas bag in a fully inflated state, wherein the head protection gas bag 14 is generally cylindrical and has an inflation opening with respect to the automobile door on the one hand. Compressed gas source 12
And on the other hand via a fabric flap 16. The head protection gas bag is completely inflated
In the tensioned state, the fabric flap 16 is located at one axial end of the head protection gas bag 14 and the other axial end of the head protection gas bag 14 is located on the car door adjacent the B column. It is located beyond the trailing edge.

The folded gas bag is sealed in a single thermofoil, thus maintaining its shape during transport and assembly. In this figure, a mounting lug 20 of the compressed gas source 12 and a mounting hole 22 of the fabric flap 16 are shown, by means of which the sub-assembly is connected to the motor vehicle door or, respectively, to its jacket. . The subassembly shown here may be pre-assembled within the vehicle door envelope before the envelope is installed on the vehicle door.

Is shown. By employing a suitable system for folding the gas bag, the fabric flap 1 is moved towards the end of the gas bag deployment process.
Only the axial end of the head protection gas bag on the side opposite to 6 can be reliably deployed rearward toward the B column. This prevents the safety belt extending between the B column and the upper body of the vehicle occupant from interfering with the deployment of the head protection gas bag 14. To ensure such a deployment mode, each end of the gas bag is packed inward when folded. The same effect is obtained with a tear-open seam (not shown), which is burst open in a controlled manner during deployment.

れる。As the design of the protection device according to the invention is as described above, the use of the mounting part 16 separated from the head protection gas bag 14 allows the connection between the B column and the upper body of the vehicle occupant. The extending safety belt ensures that the deployment of the gas bag is not obstructed. Furthermore, an additional connection with the car door, i.e.
Due to the textile flap 16, the head protection gas bag 14 is particularly stable in the deployed state, so that even if the occupant's head eccentrically collides with the head protection gas bag, the head protection gas bag 14 will not. No undesirable displacement will occur at the location of the bag 14. By arranging the folded head protection gas bag 14 along the upper edge of the car door jacket, the gas bag also reduces the gap between the upper edge of the jacket and the door itself during the deployment process. With the emergence from the inside, a predetermined weakening point or line of weakness in the door jacket is no longer necessary, and a gas bag packed in the car door will usually appear. The overall elongate shape of the gas bag and the mounting portion 16 allow the jacket to be released in a controlled manner from the door, and the head protection gas bag 14 to be properly controlled from behind the jacket. Will appear. Since the compressed gas source 12 is located below the window of the vehicle door, the noise that the vehicle occupants must withstand when the compressed gas source ignites is that the gas generator is housed in the roof of the vehicle. Or, for example, generally lower than when housed in the headrest of a car seat. Due to the sewn-off fabric flap 16 and the overall cylindrical shape of the head protection gas bag 14, the head protection gas bag has a relatively small volume and a compressed gas source 12 This has a favorable effect on the required dimensions and the required expansion time. Finally, from the point of view of the deployed head protection gas bag hitting the body of the vehicle occupant, in the case of a downwardly deployed head protection gas bag according to the invention, for example, the head of the vehicle Significantly better results are obtained than with a head protection gas bag that begins to deploy from the support.

される。Although not shown, according to another embodiment of the gas bag protection device for lateral impacts, the inflation opening and the mounting part are arranged in the opposite direction to the embodiment shown in the figures. Is also good. Therefore, the inflation opening of the gas bag 14 is arranged in front of the fabric flap 16 with respect to the traveling direction of the vehicle.
